Two former members of the Alabama Crimson Tide men’s basketball team, Jaylen Forbes and Raymond Hawkins, have announced where they will be playing for the 2020 season.
Smith, a guard who just finished his freshman season, was a player Alabama fans were familiar with in his lone year with the program. He stood at 6 feet 4 inches tall. In his time with the Crimson Tide, Forbes averaged just over 10 minutes a game and a field goal percentage of 32%.
Forbes will be transferring to Tulane for his final year of eligibility.

The California native announced via Twitter that he will be transferring to Long Beach State.

These are the first two commits of Oats to leave Alabama during is time as head coach. However, he, nor the fans, seem to be worried as they look ahead to the top-20 recruiting class he has put together for the 2020 season.
